A Court of Thorns and Roses - Sarah J. Maas

Book: A Court of Thorns and Roses
Author: Sarah J. Maas
Releasedate: 5th of May, 2015

This is one of my favorite books at this time. The first book in an amazing trilogy. I even own it as a paperback instead of reading it on my e-reader, so it can occupy a lovely spot in my bookcase. This is the third time that I've read it and I keep falling in love with the story. Seeing more and more details since I know what is going to happen after this book. I've also read the two upfollowing books and it still doesn't bore me! Those too are present in my bookcase!

This is not your average Beauty and the Beast story. It is lovely, wonderful, indefinitely rich to read and behelds more than you might think when you read it for the first time. Luckily my mind is quite forgettable, so I don't mind reading a book over and over. You can feel the despair of Feyres world before everything happens. You can feel so many emotions throughout the story and I wished I could paint. It sounds amazing to be able to see the world like that. And it only gets better.

Sarah takes you with her in this amazing world filled with faeries, Fae and fantasy. She paints the picture in your head for you without little effort. And after reading it the first time I was flabbergasted about what happened and overjoyed how it ended. Now, after reading it for the third time I am only curious to read further, in spite of having read the second book already twice. It's intriguing to see how many layers Sarah has woven into the world and the story of Feyre. There is so much richness to it. I kinda recognised myself more in her sister Nesta, cold and calculating at times, but there is enough to recognise in Feyre to live with her in her world. Beastly Tamlin is really fantastic and too good to be true for a High Lord that it pains me to know how the story goes. Riddles, riddles, riddles. It is so much better to read it, then for me to tell it.

I know which book I'm reading next, and I've got some catching up to do since the novella "A Court of Frost and Starlight" is coming up on the 1st of May, which will function as a sequel to the current storyline and a prequel to what is coming. I can't wait!
